This is my first story ever published and all comments are wanted! If anyone actually reads this. I experimented with 1st person and 3rd... Should I continue this story? Enjoy...?
Both the characters are my own from Final Fantasy XIV A realm reborn.
And I do not own anything! Just my imagination is my own.
The only thing that could be heard was the footsteps of the chocobo and the song the driver was humming.
Mirli leaned on her sister sound asleep. Misiku watched for hours as their cart rolled forward towards Ul'dah. As she looked at the others who were travelling with them she noticed the two sleeping human kids and an old man.
'He's staring at my sister funny...' Misiku thought and put her left hand on her sword handle and her right hand protectively over Mirli which caused her to stir in her sleep and let a rather loud moan as she snuggled into her sister.
After a while of watching the bushes pass by Misiku herself felt tired and her head started drooping.
Mirli saw her sister stand far away within a shining light like the one that shone on her a while ago.
She started running but felt like she could never get any closer, the new clothes weren't making it easy on her either.
Misiku drew her blade as she approached making her stop.
"Hey didn't mom tell you not to point that at me?"
"Mirli?! Where did you steal that gear? Take it back! We didn't become adventurers to steal someone elses stuff!" Misikus eyes widened as she looked at her own gear and her blade, it was at least twice the size of her old one!
This couldn't possibly be hers. Misiku saw a dark shadow for not 20 meters away from them.
"We will talk about this later" she said as she stepped in front of her sister to shield her.
"Wait... This shield isn't mine either! Oh bloody hell!" Mirli started to get her fire spell ready as the hooded dark figure had appeared completely.
Without a word he started running at them, Misiku raised her shield and had her blade ready while trying to make enough room for her sisters spells to fly past her and not into her.
"Hey! You two alright?!" Ugh I hate it when people wake me up mid dream... Mirli peeked at the man now staring straight at them.
"Oh... I thought I should wake you since you were moaning quite a lot actually." I looked up to see my sister as tense as ever staring at the man with her other hand on her sword.
"Thank you. My name is Misiku and this is my twin sister Mirli" Still hiding in my sisters arms but waved at the man.
"Oh! Brendt's the name an peddling is the trade! Want to chat a while? The young ones don't really seem to care for chit chat." I would still be sleeping if I could... maybe I can drift off without anyone noticing?
"Twins you say? I'm sorry to say this but you look different from one another..." I let go of my hold on my sister to sit up straight and try to look as tense as her.
"Oh now I see it..." I hunch back down and start checking my spell book. I have got to get more spells here than fire... I wonder if they sell those at Ul'dah.
"You two adventurers? Judging by your gear... Odd looking and not really made for comfort is it?" Brendt said while laughing.
"Yeah... Our parents went to fight in the war and didn't come back... Now we are going to do our part for keeping this place safe!" Misiku said and averted her eyes of the shock the mans eyes were showing.
"I am sorry to hear that. You two doing okay?" Brendt seemed actually worried about the two girls he just met.
"I... We are fine... thank you for asking..." Mirli said hiding behind her book. "We did not need adults when we grew up the last 7 years... We don't need them now!" Misiku stared at the man intently making him squirm in his seat.
"Misiku he doesn't mean anything by it... Calm down please! I don't want to walk the rest of the way..." Mirli grabbed her sisters arm and lowered her ears making a puppy face at her sister.
"Oh... no need to get angry I was just curious and worried... And you don't have to worry about walking... we're here!"
Mirli poked her head out as far as she could to try to see the city.
"It is huuuge! Our old town was a fly's footprint on a map compared to this! I will never have to eat those weird fishes ever again!" Mirli shouted happily as Misiku covered her forehead in her hand and sighed.
"Relax sis... There are men in the cart and your tail is wagging a lot... Sit down and cover your... amm..." Mirli was back sitting within seconds and her face was scarlet red.
She looked up at the man to apologize only to see him blushing and looking away.
"Ah sorry about that... She gets carried away sometimes... You know how mages can be." Misiku laughed.
Brendt coughed and tried to maintain a serious face and took his bag on his lap and started looking for nothing in particular in it.
"You mean your sister is a Thaumaturge? And judging by your blade you are a... Gladiator?" Both of the girls nodded and smiled.
The carriage came to a halt and the driver yelled a few men over to empty the back so the passengers can get off.
The two young humans woke up and jumped off the side and disappeared into the crowd.
After a while of waiting and chatting with Brendt about what their plans were and why they were here he jumped off and handed his hand out to help the ladies down.
Misiku jumped down and handed her hand so her sister could get down. Mirli took both hands and took the steps slowly.
Before the girls started to walk towards the gates Mirli planted a short kiss on Brendts cheek.
"Thanks for the company!" She yelled and disappeared into the crowd behind her sister.
